50 Shades of Ruben: Vol. 3

Sunday was filled with a lot of hype for Tropical Storm Sandy. The weather was shifting, the wind was howling but was no match for Rubens newest sound system.

This drill box turned speaker was seriously bumping

 

And this was the drill battery which powered the whole setup

White Fang WINS!

The Commonwealth Classic hosted by US, Boston Bike Polo went off last weekend without a hitch. We had amazing weather BOTH days, great teams from all over. We had 2 teams from each Bangor, ME and New York, NY, one full Burlington, VT team, another from Northampton, MA, and Boston had 4 teams in the running. Saturday was a net-bulging round robin and every team got at least on match up with every other squad.

Boston’s WHITE FANG made up of Papi, Addison and Jamie came out on top after a grueling fangfull double final. The home team boys squeaked in the sudden-death winning goal to keep The Commonwealth Cup in Boston for its first year. Get training for next year!

50 Shades of Ruben: Vol. 2

On Friday October 12 Boston Bike Polo threw a fundraising party to raise funds for the upcoming tournament. Everyone was getting fully torqued, including Ruben, who showed up pre-torqued packing a new Ruben Cube for sound and some dope riser bars. Check it out:

Dope ends with integrated high-rise braking system

Ruben’s been packing this for awhile, but it hasn’t been documented until now
